Francis Ngannou vs Ciryl Gane Opening Odds on FanDuel Sportsbook Reveal Early Favorite for UFC 270 Main Event

A massive unification bout will headline UFC 270 next month as UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou will go toe-to-toe with the interim champion, Ciryl Gane.

The fight will take place on Saturday, Jan. 22 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. While UFC 270 is just under a month away, FanDuel Sportsbook's opening odds have revealed a favorite heading into the pay-per-view.

Ngannou vs Gane UFC 270 Odds

Ngannou is FanDuel's -120 opening favorite to walk out of UFC 270 as the unified heavyweight champion. Meanwhile, the undefeated Gane is currently listed as the slight +102 underdog.

Ngannou hasn't fought since he won the UFC Heavyweight Championship back in March at UFC 260. It didn't take long for the Las Vegas native to win the gold, defeating Stipe Miocic by knockout at 0:52 in the second round.

Meanwhile, Gane is undefeated (10-0) in his MMA career and is 3-0 in 2021 alone. The Muay Thai expert's most recent bout came when he defeated Derrick Lewis for the interim heavyweight title at UFC 265 in August.

Regardless of which way the fight goes, MMA fans should be entertaining by next month's UFC 270 main event. As it stands, FanDuel Sportsbook is favoring Ngannou to win by KO/TKO at +110 odds.
